Artist-in-Residence at Philadelphia Cathedral

The sponsoring of an Artist in Residence in Philadelphia Cathedral is a lead program designed to encourage local artists and at the same time enrich the cathedral's liturgical space with art work of high quality. In this way contemporary artists can help broaden the horizons of the faith community, and challenges us to think in new ways about old truths and familiar stories.

Applications are now being accepted for the Artist-in-Residence program for the year 2008-2009. A large and well-lit studio is provided free in exchange for a work of art to be kept on permanent display at the cathedral at the end of the 12 month period of residence.

For more information, please contact Riyehee Hong, the Director of Music and the Arts.
